There. I did it. I've willed this badboy to start appearing by 1 Eastern tomorrow.

You're welcome.

No. I've got things to do...and frankly, this stuff takes time.

That's my guess. With the new bond w/ iTunes that we've seen as of late (bootlegs, singles), I'd think they'd start streaming it on Tuesday.
If they do it won't be the whole thing. Because you'd basically be leaking it yourself.
Loads of bands are streaming the entire album around a week before release.
PJ probably doesn't even know what streaming means
Probably true.
Here's what I imagine...

Setting: A week before release date, in the woods near a river, group camp out

Stone: "Guys, according to fans, we should stream this a week early"
Jeff: "I like that idea."
Mike: "Yeah, let's do it."
Ed: [Walks down to river's edge and places CD in the water; it floats away]...Like that?

GROUP HIGH FIVE!
Matt and Boom: [stays in the corner eating leftovers and shivering]

Nothing...until it is something.

Edit: It really is nothing more than the power of my brain allowing the leak to present itself by 1 pm tomorrow. ;-)

We're going to start a new thread for this when it actually leaks/releases, right?

Like an interregnum post-leak/pre-release thread. Full throttle, no holds barred post-athon and then, on the US release date, deleted and replaced with a real thread with true feelings.
